Faxon Superfinished 6.5 Grendel/ARC Gunner Lightweight Type 2 BCG .136 - Nitride (FF65GBCGCNITRIDE-LW)
Build a faster, smoother Grendel or ARC-family AR-15 with the Faxon Superfinished 6.5 Grendel/ARC Gunner Lightweight Type 2 BCG. This reduced-mass bolt carrier group pairs Faxon’s Gunner lightweight carrier body with a Type 2 (.136") Grendel/ARC bolt for reliable function across 6.5 Grendel, 6mm ARC, 22 ARC, and .338 ARC applications that use the Type 2 bolt face.
The bolt is machined from 9310 tool steel, MPI tested, heat treated, and shot peened. Both bolt and carrier are salt bath nitrided for hardness, lower friction, and better corrosion resistance than traditional phosphate. Faxon’s Superfinish on the carrier body helps reduce fouling and keep cycling smooth. An adjustable gas block is recommended to tune the system for ammo, buffer choice, and suppressed use.
